The alcohol Paul Gascoignes has been the worst enemy for decades. Now “Gazza” was back in the hospital. Not only fans worry. But there is a slight all -clear.
England’s football legend Paul Gascoigne is probably again on the way of improvement after a stay in the clinic. The 58-year-old, who has been struggling with the consequences of his alcohol addiction for decades, was “back home and it is fine,” said Carly Saward from the agency “The Mnt” in an email to the US news agency Associated Press (AP).
The former international volunteered on Friday in the emergency room of a hospital, “after he had to deal with a neck leak that he has had for some time,” the statement said. For years, the fight against alcohol and the resulting massive health problems has determined the life of “Gazza”, as Gascoigne in England is called by fans and media.
Previously, the British newspaper “The Sun” reported that Gascoigne had been “half unconscious” in his house in his house in southern English pools by a friend and admitted to an intensive care unit. The situation was serious. He was then moved to a regular station.
Fascoigne has been fighting his alcohol addiction for decades, and he also suffered from depression. He drank during his active career. “I drank four bottles of whiskey a day. How I could endure it? With cocaine! I certainly pulled 16 lines a day,” said the 57-time English international in November 2011.
Gascigne was considered one of the world’s best playmakers in his generation. He led the Three Lions at the 1990 World Cup and the 1996 European Championship to the semi -finals. In 1990 he cried after the end of the penalty shootout against Germany, the scene is legendary. Gascoigne played, among others, for Newcastle United, Tottenham Hotspur, where he is still considered a club end today, and Lazio Rome. But he was also famous for his escapades on and next to the square.
